Gyroscopic Precession and Inertial Forces in Axially Symmetric Stationary Spacetimes [PDF]
We study the phenomenon of gyroscopic precession and the analogues of inertial forces within the framework of general relativity. Covariant connections between the two are established for circular orbits in stationary spacetimes with axial symmetry.

GraVIS: Grouping Augmented Views from Independent Sources for Dermatology Analysis [PDF]
Self-supervised representation learning has been extremely successful in medical image analysis, as it requires no human annotations to provide transferable representations for downstream tasks. Recent self-supervised learning methods are dominated by noise-contrastive estimation (NCE, also known as contrastive learning), which aims to learn invariant ...

Astrophysical Constraints on Large Extra Dimensions [PDF]
In the Kaluza-Klein (KK) scenario with n large extra dimensions where gravity propagates in the 4+n dimensional bulk of spacetime while gauge and matter fields are confined to a four dimensional subspace, the light graviton KK modes can be produced in the Sun, red giants and supernovae. We study the energy-loss rates through photon-photon annihilation,

Immunoserology Tests In Myastenia Gravis [PDF]
Myasthenia Gravis (MG) is an autoimmune neuromuscular disease that cause weakness due to the presence of autoantibodies that affect acetylcholine receptors (AChR) at the post synapse. Myasthenia gravis is a rare disease, but its prevalence is increasing.

Features of depression development in myasthenia gravis.
The relative risk of developing depression in myasthenia gravis is 2.14 times higher than in the general population. The features of depression in myasthenia patients remain poorly understood and need to be clarified.

ABSTRACTCavin‐4 was identified as a potential autoantigen for immune‐mediated rippling muscle disease (iRMD). To validate this, we developed and tested various immunoassays, including a cell‐based assay (CBA), cavin‐4 recombinant protein ELISA, and multi‐peptide ELISA. Among 19 iRMD patients, all exhibited muscle rippling, and 13 had percussion‐induced

Myasthenia gravis and pregnancy: clinical implications and neonatal outcome [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The myasthenia gravis is twice as common in women as in men and frequently affects young women in the second and third decades of life, overlapping with the childbearing years.
